Future Replica challenge

[Neptunium_69]

Okay, so this challenge is inspired by the Historical replica challenge.

The point of this challenge is to replicate one of these missions of the future in KSP:

1.Artemis II (Mun Orbit)

2.Artemis III (Mun Landing with Moonship)

3.Any Artemis mission with Gateway (Mun landing with moonship, Gateway & colony)

4.Mars Sample Return ( Mars 2020 + ESA mars return rover + other parts to Duna)

5.Starship to mars (SpaceX Starship to duna)

6.DAVINCI (Eve)

7.Europa chipper (Vall)

8.LUVOIR (Deep Space)

9.Replicate any future rocket (like Neutron, SLS…)

10.Tiny Cubesats (Kerbin orbit, launch 4)

11.Orbital reef (Kerbin orbit)

12.Asteroid redirection Mission (Get an asteroid to low kerbin orbit with a asteroid detection mission)

13.VIPER (Rover on the Mun)

14.Future Titan base (Laythe)

15.Mars 2020(Not quite future but still, it’s cool) (Duna surface+helicopter)

16.DART(half future) (try using collisions to get a asteroid on a different course)

17.JUICE (Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer) (Enter the sphere of influence and collect some science from every moon of Jool.)

18.Psyche (Gilly orbit)

19.Parker solar probe (Kerbol orbit touch the outer atmosphere of kerbol)

20.Europa lander (Land on Vall)

21.Near Earth asteroid scout (Launch a cubesat to a asteroid)

22.VERITAS (Eve orbit)

23.Lunar Flashlight (Fire a firework at the Mun from low Mun orbit)

24.Lucy (Flyby 6 asteroids)

25.Crewed Asteroid mission (Send a Kerbal to a asteroid)

 

Rules:

1. Build launch and fly the spacecraft you choose to the target destination!

2. Proof: 1. Spacecraft screenshot (in the VAB and on the target destination) 2.Rocket screenshot (Just 1) Or you could just send a video.

3. Mods & DLCs: All DLCs are allowed. Graphics, Autopilot, and telemetry mods are allowed. Parts mods needs to be approved.

4.All modes and difficulty are allowed although a complete science or career mode run will get you a extra performance badge as well as using Hard difficulty.

Badges:

Challenge completed:

Least funds (Below 75,000 ):

Extra performance(Realistic rocket?, realistic landing site? Realistic launch vehicle, Reusability?Science or career mode run?):

Notes:

Note 1: for the cubesat your rocket has to be less than 7,500  for the least fund badge

Note 2: I did try to find as many fun ideas as I can on NASA so some of them might be need research to complete.

Note 3: Every time you complete the challenge, you get a badge (Just like the Historical replica challenge.

Have fun!!!

Sorry for the badge being small

[Akagi]

Ooooooh, yeah. Time for some GIANT SPACE AIRCRAFT CARRIERS!

That, I think, nests under "any future rocket."

[Kerb24]

@Akagi I think they mean near future.

Heh, me and you are generation neighbors. Anyway, I have a super realistic stock SLS cargo block 2 that can land 136 tonnes on the surface of the Mun... So maybe I will launch Gateway and do a landing... But it sure will cost way more than 75,000....

It’s okay, the 75,000 is made to be very challenging, it’s okay to not get the Least Funds badge

Just some mission suggestions:

Deep Space Transport mission to Duna

Constellation Duna mission

Crewed asteroid mission

[BigStar Aerospace]

I've done my own rendition of the Constellation Mars mission with my Starlight vehicle, it even included the drop tanks, but it wasn't as efficient as I would've liked it to be.

[Akagi]

Does this count?

A futuristic SSTO which I knocked together

(it's NOT the probe!)

[Neptunium_69]

It does count!

Coming up next: the KES Nippon, my ridiculous second entry in this challenge, for the "Extra performance" badge. 

Space aircraft carrier

has 3-4 little ships it can launch

would that go under "Extra performance?"

[Neptunium_69]

@AkagiTry making rockets that are already designed today and will soon launch. (eg. Neutron, Spin-launch, New Glenn, and so on…)

[sir rocket]

would this be an ok mod list?

@sir rocketit would be okay, and try making something thats already been proposed currently.
